Rooney and Vidic Face Anxious Wait
The Author
Hey, my name is Liam, and I first published 'Rooney and Vidic Face Anxious Wait' on 28th April, 2008, within the Champions League section.
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is sweating on the fitness of striker Wayne Rooney and defender Nemanja Vidic ahead of their Champions League semi final secondleg with Barcelona at Old Trafford.
Both players were injured during Man Utd’s Premier League clash with Chelsea at the weekend, a game which Man Utd lost 2-1.
Defender Vidic was kicked in the face by Didier Drogba and was bleeding heavily, he was later carried off on a stretcher.
Striker Wayne Rooney was taken off after scoring the equalising goal after he injured his hip in the second half of the match.
Both players were absent from training on Monday and both were to be given late fitness tests before a desicion is made on them.
Manager Sir Alex Ferguson was unsure whether they’d make it but insisted he will not make his mind up until the last possible point.
He said that both players will be given a chance to prove their fitness, we have a feeling they both might play but its not 100% certain.
